Frankly, I think indie music is stronger than I've ever seen it.

And I agree. Todays music isn't overly movie made for movies. But there are plenty that will stick around for a while. Radiohead will be remembered as the father of the electronic age. Muse and kings of leon are indie bands that seem to be seeping into mainstream. I think we're finally seeing a divide between indie and pop. And I agree, dig deep and there are some really great indie bands that have talent and have very strong followings.

Radiohead was from the 90's, as was Muse. And Muse is hardly "indie", especially outside of the US.

Regardless, "Indie" bands aren't what's push mainstream movies, film and advertising.

More to the point, there isn't a Led Zeppelin, Who, Eagles, Beatles, Boston, Foreigner, AC/DC, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Guns 'N' Roses, David Bowie, Eagles, Doobie Brothers, Allmans, Foo Fighters, Journey, Iron Maiden, Kiss, Joe Satriani, Van Halen, Metallica, Pearl Jam, The Cars, The Wallflowers, Yes, ZZ Top or even a Stevie Ray Vaughn spurned from this decade.

It's been lackluster. There are very, very, very few bands and artists that will be around in five years that originated from this decade, let alone 20 years.
